Connecticut and Dallas came into their matchup with one thing in common. Both franchises thus far this year was winless. However, one organization would move on finally with a victory. On Tuesday, the Dallas Wings and Paige Bueckers got their first win of the 2025 season.
Both teams BATTLED. In the first quarter, the score remained tighter than a lid on a fresh pickle jar. With the Sun leading by just ONE point at the quarter’s end. However, it was in the second quarter that some separation finally occurred.
The wings flew high and fast going up 16 points over the Sun. Dallas would win the second quarter, outscoring Connecticut 33-18. Going into halftime winning by 14 points; with a score of 56-42.

Furthermore, in the third quarter the Wings just continue their dominance. Extending their lead to a whopping 18 points. Their largest of the day.
By this point in the game, first round pick and newest WNBA star, Paige Bueckers had put up 21 points. But it should be noted that her teammates were doing work as well with Arike Ogunbowale with 17 points and Dijonai Carrington with 16 points by the 3rd. It is clear that this trio is quickly becoming a Big 3 that the league should not be counting out in terms of competition.
But let’s get back to the game itself, it was time for the fourth and final quarter. Would the Wings have enough juice to finish off the game? Or would the Connecticut Sun play spoiler and get their first victory?
Well, unfortunately for the Sun; they would have the same problem that they experienced on Sunday. In their previous game before Memorial Day, the Atlanta Dream had out-scored the Sun in the second half, winning 55-79. Now against the Wings, the same glaring issue came to the fore. Being completely out scored in the third and fourth quarters.
In the end, the Wings would defeat Connecticut 109-87. An ironic win for Paige Bueckers who attended and won at UConn. And now she gets her first victory in the WNBA in the Sun’s home. Bueckers now also becomes the first rookie to drop 20, and the only wnba player with 60+ points and 30+ assists in their first five games.
